The Daywalker - Prequel Shorts | Marvel's Midnight Suns

You know... they didn't have to go so hard on the 90s Xmen style in the intro sequence, but they did and I love it

[@vernonhampton5863]

Wrong, always go hard on the intro.

me too

[@TreeHouse2023]

True...reminds me of Earth's mightiest avengers a lil bit too

[@CorbCorbin]

Wolverine and the yellow suits are the only X-Men like things. That intro looks more like the Marvel anime intros, than TAS.

[@johnteets490]

I love that Blade just signs up right away. "If you are asking me to join a team, something's gone really bad. Say no more." 😆

[@iagoluiz8467]

He already knows that the Caretaker is recruiting people who could handle supernaturals. And hunting supernaturals is Blade's job and sport.

[@Punisher-u5s]

This is the one character I think I will want on every mission.

[@adambirch2925]

I like the video where Jake says the Revenants (a mid to late game enemy type) are a kind of Vampire. When a character (including NPC’s) take Bleed damage, the Rev’s go into blood frenzy and attack the bleeding target, including their own faction. Blade uses Bleed attacks. Nuff said.

At first, I felt excited to see Illyana in yet another short! I thought that made her really important, especially since Ghost Rider wasn't with them. I thought Yana only showed up in his because she was just the previous introduction. But then I realized..... Magik is being treated here as she often is in the comics: as the team's free Uber ☹ lol

[@Crazieyboy15]

I always find it really interesting to think that Blade is actually really fast and agile at what's essentially him at his weakest state. If he actually drunk blood, he would be reasonably be stronger than Dracula and I might even say have enough reflexes to be on par with something like Spidermans Spider sense. My mans is literally nerfing himself out of a sense to hold on to his humanity.

[@MaskofFayt]

Makes sense that he technically was a spider-man of sorts then

[@shai310]

Yeah but I like that aspect of him, he can get stronger but it'll cost him his humanity. But I think sooner or later he'll have to do it once he faces someone who's strong enough.

I congratulate their efforts however for showcasing some other Marvel characters in games. hopefully they add Moon Knight as well since he's an original member if I'm not mistaken.

[@michaeljohnson7945]

1.) I like how this showing of Blade incorporates the mannerisms and actions of Wesley Snipes' first Blade movie. The initial landing, the closeup camera angle moving up his torso showing his vest and weapons, throwing the glaive that kills the vampires and returns to him, even cracking his neck, reminded me of the Blade movies. 2.) Disney should make "Midnight Suns" a Disney-Plus series. This concept is much more creative than "What If?" plus the animated series format lends itself to using characters such as Ghost Rider.

[@legomojo]
